Owners is one of Churchill’s earliest plays and is a black comedy/drama about property ownership in the 1970s. It tackles serious themes such as sexism, the role of women, the socioeconomic divide and mental health to name a few. The play takes place in Islington (London), and follows the story of Lisa and Alec being evicted from their small apartment by old acquaintance and successful property developer Marion.
